(Extra Chapter for Monthly Tickets 5)
Sienna Thornton felt very confused and didn’t know how to face Quentin Thorne, so she and Simon Forrester sat downstairs for quite a while.
By the ti they went upstairs, Quentin Thorne had already left.
linda Linton said, "Annie, your dad said he’s been busy lately and won’t be able to co over every week, so he asked to let you know."
Seeing that linda Linton knew nothing and couldn’t understand her feelings, Sienna Thornton didn’t eat breakfast and quietly returned to her room.
Her mind was in turmoil due to complex emotions, so she packed up and returned to the apartnt with Simon Forrester earlier than planned.
After returning, she reminded Simon Forrester not to knock on the door unless necessary, and locked herself in the guest room she used to stay in.
She did nothing but sit on the bed and ditate, trying to persuade and comfort herself, working hard to escape from the black hole of childhood incompleteness.
...
After a few days, Sienna Thornton’s emotional wounds began to heal gradually. Suddenly, Auntie King called, saying she had just gone grocery shopping with linda Linton, and Ian Grant was stopped by so n in black suits at the gate. They were still having a confrontation there.
Upon hearing about it, Sienna Thornton imdiately took ti off to go there.
A white BMW carrying linda Linton and Auntie King was parked at the entrance of The Springs Residences, while Ian Grant was being blocked by several bodyguards.
Considering Ian Grant’s status, the bodyguards didn’t dare to lay hands on her. Two were guarding the BMW’s doors, and two were stopping her.
Sienna Thornton parked her car behind the BMW, quickly got out, and ran over.
Having not seen Ian for a month, Ian Grant had beco skin and bones, her face devoid of color, wearing a black baseball cap.
She shouted at the bodyguards, "Get out of my way! If you dare to stop , be careful I’ll have your boss fire you!"
Seeing that the bodyguards were unmoved, she turned to Sienna Thornton and said, "Get these bodyguards away, I have sothing to say to your mother!"
Sienna Thornton quickly made a decision.
Ian Grant, as soone whose life was nearing its end, might hold a reckless attitude, so she couldn’t let her get close to linda Linton at this mont.
Sienna Thornton turned her head and instructed the bodyguards guarding the car, "Let the car in!"
The bodyguards imdiately stepped aside, and the BMW slowly drove into the community.
Sienna Thornton then returned to her car and instructed the bodyguards, "Call Fourth Young Master Grant to co and take her back!"
After saying this, she drove into the community, and after getting out, she called Director-General Linton to take a day’s leave.
That day, she stayed at ho with linda Linton, waiting for Simon Forrester to co ho from work so they could discuss their strategy.
However, before Simon Forrester returned in the evening, she received a call from Mina Thorne. Mina Thorne asked her out for tea, saying she had sothing to discuss.
After much consideration, she decided to go.
The tea eting was arranged near The Springs Residences, showing Mina Thorne’s sincerity in eting her.
By the ti Sienna Thornton arrived, Mina Thorne was already there. Seated by the window with a cup of hot tea on the table, her hands folded in front of her, the tea untouched.
Sienna Thornton walked over, sat down, and looked at her expressionlessly, "What is it?"
Mina Thorne maintained her usual cool and distant deanor, with a composed expression on her face.
She said, "My mom wants to et your mom."
Sienna Thornton didn’t even think: "No way!"
Mina Thorne didn’t ask why, lowered her eyes, stared at the table for a while, then asked, "Did you know my mom has breast cancer?"
Sienna Thornton didn’t respond.
Mina Thorne closed her eyes, her nose quickly reddening, and two streams of tears rolled down.
She choked as she spoke, "We are taking her to the United States, but the doctors said there’s no need for surgery anymore. Although they suggested trying a combination of radiotherapy and chemotherapy, but..."
At one point, she couldn’t continue, tears streaming down.
Seeing her like that, Sienna Thornton also felt bad and handed her two tissues.
"She keeps vomiting, can’t eat, lost all her hair, and is very weak and in pain... We went to Qinton to find a master who said she carries a deep karmic debt that must be repaid, or she won’t make it past this hurdle..."
Sienna Thornton’s eyes grew colder, "And then? What does repaying the debt have to do with my mom?"
Mina Thorne shook her head while crying, "I don’t know, my mom only said that your mom must forgive her for her karmic debt to be cleared..."
Sienna Thornton wasn’t sure if this was true or not, scared by people like Ian Grant, even wondering if Ian Grant was putting on an act, and once in contact with linda Linton, would she take the opportunity for revenge?
In the end, she didn’t agree. After repeated requests from Mina Thorne, she proposed that if she wanted to repay the debt, she could just record it on her phone. If linda Linton was willing to forgive her, she would also record it and send it back.
Mina Thorne, seeing no other option, had to agree.
However, over the next couple of days, no recording was sent over. Sienna Thornton gradually let the matter go.
She asked Simon Forrester to let Tobias Blackwood know that until Ian Grant could no longer move freely, they still had to continue protecting linda Linton.
A few days later, Gage Grant visited the Treaty and Law Departnt to find Sienna Thornton. Unlike his usual playful deanor, Gage Grant was particularly serious and earnest that day.
He said he already knew about Sienna Thornton’s request from Mina Thorne, but The Grant Family believed that having recordings of these matters wouldn’t be good and hoped Sienna Thornton would give Ian Grant a chance considering the friendship between The Grant Family and Forrester Family.
Seeing Gage Grant already express it to this degree, Sienna Thornton didn’t hold back and said tactfully, "You also know your aunt’s emotions have not been stable, especially towards and my mom. She even has a history of trying to attack us, so I can’t allow them to et alone. What if your aunt loses control halfway through the conversation and ends up hurting my mom..."
Gage Grant couldn’t argue, fell silent for a while, and suggested, "How about this, let’s arrange the eting at your ho, with my aunt and auntie each sitting on one side of the dining table. I’ll have Tobias bring bodyguards along to protect auntie, while I’ll also be watching over my aunt, ensuring that nothing goes wrong."
After careful consideration, Sienna Thornton agreed, setting the eting for this Saturday afternoon.
There were only two reasons why she agreed to this.
Firstly, as the saying goes, the words of a dying man are kind; she believed that if Ian Grant was truly coming with the intent of repaying a debt, she would inevitably clarify what happened back then. Sienna Thornton really wanted to know what happened in the past.
Secondly, if one day Ian Grant passed away, she would have done her best, and The Grant Family would have no reason to resent her.
If she didn’t let Ian Grant and linda Linton et now, after Ian Grant’s passing, those who didn’t understand might bla her, thinking that it was her refusal to let Ian Grant repay her debt to linda Linton that prevented Ian Grant from overcoming this hurdle.

Finally so ti to go over the extra Chapters for September’s monthly ticket.
As of 24:00 on September 30, Shadowsweet’s monthly tickets totaled 648. When the rate for extra Chapters was set at 30 Chapters per extra, the total was 283, so 365 additional tickets were added; therefore, based on 30 Chapters per extra, a total of 12 extra Chapters were to be added. From the 27th to the 30th, 4 extras were added, plus one more on the 2nd of today, making 5 extras; hence, the remaining 7 extras will be added at a rate of one extra per day, continuing until all 12 are completed!
(The rule for extra Chapters is one additional Chapter on top of the regular updates—e.g., typically three updates during recomnded slots, so four updates with one extra; if not on recomnded slots typically two updates, so three updates with one extra; currently known, Shadowsweet is in the recomnded slots from October 1st to 4th, so there will be four updates for those four days; beyond the 4th is currently unknown;)
Thank you all for supporting with your monthly tickets, the more tickets, the more extra Chapters!
